ATOM Business Web Shield is a cloud-based internet security solution for business customers of all sizes – SMB through Enterprise. It is a powerful yet simple security solution that helps to protect customers from costly malware, phishing and botnets attacks without requiring additional software installations. While using this service, cyber security threats are being blocked even before a connection is established to malicious web sites using Domain Name System or DNS security technology.

Web Shield service can be activated with ATOM business Mobile Service.

HOW DOES IT WORKS?

Everything on the internet uses a system called “DNS” or “Domain Name System” for navigation. When you want to go to a website, your browser or device asks the DNS where to find it. ATOM Business Web Shield service analyses DNS data to deliver real-time, effective and accurate threat intelligence protection. Our advanced security threat intelligence database is updated almost real time and give full time protection.

Firewall and anti-virus software may block some threats but security threats like Malware, Phishing and Botnets are always changing and Web Shield provide an added layer of security to stop evolving threats.

Today’s web-based threats can be broadly categorized into two major areas: malware and phishingBotnets are an important subset of malware that warrants special attention. Mobile devices are prime phishing targets with small screens and multitasking users who may miss subtle cues that a link is malicious. 

Malware is malicious software that is secretly installed on devices. Users can also be tricked into navigating to a malicious web site and loading a malicious file. There are many kinds of malware that target businesses:

  • Viruses: Self-replicating malicious software/codes which installed without user consent
  • Trojans: Malicious software which hides it identity and looks legitimate 
  • Ransomware: Malicious software which holds user or company information at ransom to eliminate the malware
  • Adware: Malicious software which displays excessive advertisements, flashing pop-up windows, banners, in-text links and auto-play video commercials in user device
  • Spyware: Malicious program which is unknown to the user and record all the activities such as calls, messages, browsing before transmitting to the hacker

Botnet is networks of devices infected with the same malware that are controlled through a central channel (called “Command and Control” or C2) by a common hacker or group.

Phishing: Web links in emails, SMS, or other places designed to encourage clicks to malicious websites.
